A Bit About Us
Working Towards a Better Tomorrow
Detective Timara Craven is a St. Louis native who grew up in low-income neighborhoods with a mother who raised nine children. Not being able to afford much, she shared a dollhouse with her sisters which ultimately sparked imagination within her and gave her an urge to always want more out of life. Working in the city of Springfield, she saw many girls like her who have the potential be grow up to be something great.
"While you're in a difficult situation as a child, sometimes it's difficult to see that there is more to life than what's in front of you. Becoming comfortable with something you aren't familiar with can be more difficult than some may realize. Offering a hand out to spark imagination could open so many doors, for so many girls, that were once unimaginable." -Detective Timara
Detective Timara worked together with other officers and multiple members of the community who made the dream a reality. In 2020, donations were raised and dollhouses were given to multiple girls in the community in time for Christmas.
